Custom Roller Shades

Read all installation instructions

before installing.

Care and cleaning

Troubleshooting (cordless)

Using a soft cloth or sponge, dab with a mild soap and water solution. Do NOT use abrasive or harsh cleansers; they can damage the surface finish. Dry with a cloth towel to prevent water spots.

If the shade is pulled down past the ordered length, it may not unlock. Turn the roller by hand a ¼ turn down.

Operate the corded roller shade

Operate the cordless roller shade

Pull gently on the chain in one direction to lower the shade; pull in the other direction to raise the shade.

Pull gently on the tassel or bottom rail to lower and raise.

Before you begin your installation:

Read all installation instructions before you begin!• Make sure that you have all tools and hardware

needed for installation. • Check the installation surface (wall, ceiling, or

window frame) to ensure that you have suitable fasteners and tools for the material.

• Double-check the width of the shade. If you are installing several shades, be sure to match them with the appropriate window.

• Check the parts list to confirm that you have the correct number of brackets.

• Do not remove the wrap on the roller until you have completed the installation. Leaving the shade rolled up completely will ease installation and reduce the risk of damage.

• For standard roller shades, the fabric will hang off the BACK of the shade, closest to the window. For optional reverse roller shades, the fabric will hang off the front of the shade. Be sure to note this when installing the mounting brackets.

• Please note, Cassette Valances come attached to the shade. Standard Valances require assembly.
